Welcome to Second Grade Music!​

Welcome to Second Grade Music! This year we will be reinforcing and expanding upon many concepts that were introduced in First Grade including steady beat, Tempo (largo, moderato, pesto), Dynamics (pianissimo, mezzo piano, piano, forte, mezzo forte, fortissimo, crescendo, decrescendo, sfortzando) and basic music history. Students will also continue to develop their singing voices weekly. In addition to these concepts we will be learning about meter (2/4, 3/4, 4/4 time signatures), the instrumental families (percussion, brass, woodwind, strings, keyboards). Students will learn musical concepts through songs, musical games, Smartboard lessons and assessments. Much of these concepts will be reinforced using the Quaver music program. (A letter regarding the quaver program will be sent home soon so you can learn how to continue the musical magic at home!)
